Isn't that the Steven King novel turned into a movie where Tim Curry plays as an evil clown?

Didn't that have a geeky kid with an asthmatic flamethrower or something?

How does an asthmatic flamethrower work?

Doesn't the kid say "This is battery acid, you slime!"?

Wait, didn't he say, "This is slime, you battery acid"?

Does that sentence even make sense when said outloud?

If we were concerned about the possibility of an asthmatic flamethrower, does it really matter how coherent the sentence itself was?

Wouldn't the fact that the kid who said that line apparantly has some sort of mental deficiency, and is therefore potentialy unstable, and is also wielding said asthmatic flamethrower, combine to become a worrying prospect for us all?

In this day and age, should we really be suprised?

How is whether or not we are surprised relevent to the question of the morality of the whole situation?
